Rubber Ducky Poetry Hour

So tired
Wanting to just lay down
To sleep, to dream
To rest my weary soul

Remembering
Standing in a crowd of peoples
All talking, touching, demanding
Demanding my attention

It isn't easy for me
To give you all what you want
My attention, my time
A small bit of my soul

Spinning out of control
Faces flashing before me
Terrifyingly spinning uncontrollably
Please stop this ride

It stopped
I am home
I sit here ready to rest and recharge
To wrap my soul comfortingly around me

Where...
Where is your paradise?

Is it on a beach with blue waters?
Is it on a mountain with blue skies overhead?

Is it on a cruise ship flowing through the ocean?
Is it on the back of donkey climbing a cliff?

Is that your paradise?
Or is it mine?

Paradise with room service
Paradise cooking over a fire

Laying out?
Or fishing?

So tell me now
Where is your paradise?

Whose paradise first?
Your paradise or mine?

I sit here and wonder
What it would have been like
To have been with you
If only for a night

To have your undivided attention
Your words and thoughts
Just for me
But I know better
It was never meant to be

It wasn't the sex I wanted
It wasn't the ropes wrapped around me
Contorting me in some uncomfortable position
It was your mind
For it excited me

I would have done it all you know
I would have let you tie me up or tie me down
If you only kept talking to me
With all your wit
With all that intelligence spilling out

I won't claim I am different from the others
Because I don't know the others
What have the others done to be near you?
Why did they want to be near you?
Is it the same as me?

In the end it doesn't matter to me
Can I just continue conversing with you
Maybe I hope your intelligence and wit will rub off on me
Maybe I hope you will be the teacher I seek in this life
Aren't we all looking for enlightenment?

I just don't know
Do you know?
Lets just converse
And see where that takes us
Lets just converse
